BREAKING: Court Rejects Alabama House Map, Calling It Unfair to Black Voters Our teams have been working nonstop around the clock since the Callais decision to defend the maps in Alabama. This is a critical victory & affirmation that Black voters deserve fair maps. www.nytimes.com/2026/05/26/u...

A three-judge federal court panel with two Trump appointees found that another map recently greenlit by the Supreme Court intentionally discriminated against Black voters. The panel reaffirmed that racial discrimination, writing, “we do not find the issue particularly complex or close.”

Someone who comes in 2nd to a trans athlete just works harder and pushes themselves to do better. It’s the person who doesn’t even place that complains about it being unfair and tries to ruin the trans athlete’s life. People with real skill respect other people with skill.

Another woman has been shot and killed by her partner. Law enforcement will tell you there’s no threat to the public, but this woman was a member of the public, as are the 70 women shot and killed by partners every month in the U.S. We have to name this as a pattern… nbcboston.app.link/FYOZ1Ypwr3b

NEW: She Faced a Life-Threatening Miscarriage. Under Arkansas’ Abortion Ban, Even Calls to the Governor’s Office Didn’t Help. Emily Waldorf’s case shows how abortion bans have left hospital lawyers, not doctors, deciding who gets care — and how lawmakers and regulators have failed to change that.

It is beyond believe that ICE agents who have murdered Americans are still allowed to pepper spray a Senator. When do we say enough? My god America this agency has attacked one blue city after the next. They have shot innocent people in cold blood with no accountability. ICE is out of control.

Good to see Gov. Sherrill backing protesters - and detainees - at Delaney Hall, the privately operated ICE gulag in Newark. @filmmakerjulie.bsky.social and I were just there and witnessed ICE thugs trying to terrorize demonstrators. Sickening. Abolish ICE. www.nytimes.com/2026/05/25/n...

His greatest con was on his voters.

The U.S. just bombed Iran again, striking targets around the port city of Bandar Abbas. Apparently the terms to describe this are “ceasefire” and “peace deal nearly completed.”

“It’s just burning. I just wanted to try to keep people safe.” ICE fired pepper spray at Senator Andy Kim and protesters outside a detention facility in New Jersey. Not another penny should go to these out-of-control agencies — and when we regain power, we will hold all of these thugs accountable.

Can we all now agree that running the government like a business was an incredibly stupid idea?

Cam Jordan explaining plurality vs majority to other NFL players. Please resign him, Saints.

Our government has become so corrupt that there's nobody left to investigate the corruption

South Korea says North Korea has launched an unidentified projectile toward the sea.

Republicans think it's unfair that Democrats in Maryland are looking at changing their map which will eliminate the only Republican seat in the state but they were fine when Louisiana, Tennessee and Alabama did it #USDemocracy thenerdstash.com/republican-v...

America's gun psychopathy continues: *189* mass shootings so far in 2026. 💔😡💔 #GunsDontMakeUsSafer The latest, with 3 juveniles among 4 wounded teens, in Chicago, Ill.: wgntv.com/news/chicago...

NFL players, time to join the resistance

No Helen of Troy was probably not Kenyan, but I am more certain that Odysseus would not have been from Boston so I guess we'll all need a little suspension of disbelief when watching this modern film adaptation of a 2800 year old work of fiction.

60 Minutes exposes a massive insider trading ring making millions by betting on highly classified US military operations in Iran with a 98 percent win rate. Washington insiders are literally using secret Pentagon intelligence to rig prediction markets! #cdnpoli

This is something you will never hear on Fox, Newsmax or any other rightwing channel.

More than a bit worrying that reality seems not to matter anymore. Like, whole political movements rise up out of disinformation campaigns pushed by algorithms and media narratives. www.latimes.com/california/s...

He's completely incompetent, even apart from being deranged.

BREAKING: Pope Leo XIV makes historic apology for Holy See's own role in legitimizing slavery and for failing to condemn it for centuries.

Kudos to the #NAACP for asking black athletes and their parents not to send their athletes to Red State universities. Now tell the NFL players union to do the same to the #Superbowl in Jim Crow state, Tennessee!

The state of America in four panels.

Another reminder: if there exists *any* class of people who don't have due process rights, then *nobody* actually has due process rights because the government can always just say you're in that class.

As an elementary school neared a year's end, someone decided that was the day to end lives. Law Enforcement descended on the school and waited. State officials investigated and did nothing. In November 2022, Texans reelected Abbott. Want change? Don't do it again.

Doesn't it seem like the MSM are stuck in a rut? POTUS claims we're close to a deal to end the war. The media report the claim as if it's a fact. The next day, it turns out it was just a claim, & the war isn't about to end. It's like Lucy with the football. Shouldn't the media be more skeptical?

Left- Israel is still holding Dr. Hossam Abu Safiya in an Israeli dungeon. Right- France bans Israeli Minister Ben-Gvir from entering France.

The GOP Platform: Protect the fetus; starve the child. Honor the soldier; abandon the veteran. Enrich the corporation; fleece the worker. Quote the Bible; ignore the verses.

Hawaiʻi just passed a new law that limits corporations' ability to engage in political campaigns. Let’s see this in other states.

The DOJ dropped misdemeanor charges against anti-ICE protesters, admitting it used improper tactics to secure the indictment. Kat Abughazaleh, one protester and former Democratic congressional candidate, said the administration's attempts to silence them are "not going to work.”

America's gun psychopathy continues: *191* mass shootings so far in 2026. 💔😡💔 #GunsDontMakeUsSafer The latest: a 33-yr-old man fatally shot 3 family members at home (a man, woman, and boy), then turned the gun on himself (Thorton, Colo.): kdvr.com/news/local/4...

The fact that Thomas Massie lost a Republican primary because he wants pedophiles to face justice tells you everything you need to know about the state of the Republican party.

Netanyahu doesn't want the war to end because then he goes on trial. Just like the reason our "president" ran to stay out of prison.

People saying that users prefer the bubble of BlueSky to the feral viciousness of Twitter - well...yes. In the same way I prefer a restaurant where the staff are nice and the food is good over one where they stab you with forks while serving bowls of cold piss.

Why is the fucking NFL holding it's showcase in this fucking state!?!? 70% of payroll are non white but sure let's take the biggest sports spectacle and play where only white people have rights and opportunities! Boycott Tennessee! ACTUALLY 🖕🏼 tennessee Boycott the #NFL & 🖕🏼 them too!

And... we're back to threats. The cycle of: 1) Threats 2) Lies of an imminent peace deal 3) Positive media coverage for that 4) Evidence of no deal, and nowhere close to Iran making concessions 5) Pretending not to care about a deal he transparently wants 6) Threats Took about three days this time

Wow. They’re openly defending the deletion of DOJ records about a man accused in a child solicitation case who assaulted police on January 6. Truly the Epstein administration.

russians attacked a funeral procession in Sumy with an FPV drone. The drone struck the road next to a bus. At least four people were injured. Imagine attacking people while they are saying goodbye to the dead. This is the “russian world”

This is the first day in a world without CBS News Radio, which had been broadcasting since 1927. Through eighteen presidential administrations, nine popes, five British monarchs, and numerous wars. Nearly 100 years of journalism, gone like that. Bari Weiss killed it.

We found that the sepsis rate in second-trimester pregnancy loss hospitalizations increased by more than 50% under Texas’ abortion ban. Here’s how we did our analysis. (Published Feb. 2025)

Speaker Johnson & Republicans having to pull the vote on the War Powers Resolution & delay it until June because it was going to succeed just as it did in the Senate. Another instance of Johnson failing the people in service of a dementia addled spray painted prophet. Republicans hate America

Why this GOP Congress sucks...
